Shallow wells saving lives
Help us bring safe, clean water to the Turkana region of north-west Kenya. And in turn help stop more innocent victims getting caught in the crossfire, when conflict over water spills into bloodshed.
Shallow wells are a real "back-to-basics" answer. But like so many Practical Action projects, we've also helped local people make simple changes to the design of their wells, leaving them safer, cleaner and more durable.
